I rushed over, and there's four ICE agent cars there. By that time, they had already snatched a young lady from the street, Zhuang told amNewYork. I went to talk to a family and tried to get the resources they needed. According to Zhuang, the federal agents were initially spotted knocking on doors before the woman, only described as in her 20s and as a mother of an eight-month-old baby, was apparently lured out to the streets, where she was taken. The person did not hear the door knocking, and then she got a phone call, and then she came out. They got the person on the street. I think it's a setup, Zhuang said.

Like so many, when I was a kid, I remember watching Miracle on 34th Street with my mom each year. It was exciting to tune in every Christmas while waiting for Santa, but not nearly as exciting as when we hopped on the F train, went to Macy's Herald Square, and I got to see Macy's Santaland with my own eyes. In fact, the only thing more exciting may have been years later, when I introduced my own kids to it when they were little.
